Well, not quite meaningless ... anybody using VOIP from Vonage, AT&T or one of the biggies? It looks like it could save me about $40 a month given my basic service and LD bills and such. I have questions like ...
* Quality of service - is sound and latency ok? Droped connection issues?
* Effect of computer on voice - is downloading going to cut my wife off the phone?
* Physical hookup - can I disconnect my phone box from the telephone pole, plug my phone adapter into a plug in the wall and use any phone already in the house?

i am with vonage, unlimited domestic call, $24.99/month.
* Quality of service - pretty bad, worse than my cell phone.
* Effect of computer on voice - some effect.

probably not, how many phone do you have in the house? how about try cordless phone.

Stans suggestion of some way of getting all the existing phone points to use the VOIP network would be great - but I dont see any such solution being offered out there (Is it technically possible?)
A good workman is known by his tools.
Shouldn't this work?: Snip your phone line at the spot where it leaves the house, extend it, and send it to your network point. Crimp an RJ-11 male connector to the end and you're ready to go.

My previous laptop never exploded like that. Read this tiny ad while I sweep up the shards.
